That being said, I&#39;ve been on the hunt for a &#39;pea coat&#39;, but one that hits above the hips like the one you are wearing. I know you posted a link to similar coat, but could you tell me the brand of the one you are wearing?

I&#39;ve had great luck at the Alton Place cobbler in Brookline. The guy there is very experienced with leather boots and charges only $25 per pair. He has taken in 3 pairs of boots for me and I have always been happy with the results. Also, it makes shopping lots more fun when you don&#39;t feel so limited! I hope everyone out there considers tailoring.Kim Uyen Danghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08555054690033747800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879961822849422387.post-48204794787465774102012-11-24T18:21:02.148-05:002012-11-24T18:21:02.148-05:00I really like the outfit.

I always enjoy reading your blog and want...Hi Jean,<br />I always enjoy reading your blog and wanted to provide a helpful tip that I have used over the years a number of times for boots, as I have thin calves, but large feet (size 40). If the boot has a seam up the back, a good cobbler may be able to take in the seam by a couple of inches. I have even had them put in a zipper up the back as a solution when there was no seam up the back and no side zipper. Not all cobblers are willing to do this and one cobbler in downtown Danvers, MA took it in by the zipper, instead of the back seam, which ruined the look of the boot. So, I would advise before doing this option to consult with the cobbler as to how they would take the calf in, especially with a nice boot. I am not sure which suburb of Boston you live in, but the cobbler in Salem, MA at Gagnon&#39;s shoe repair has done an excellent job with this for me in the past.<br /><br />Boots with laces have also been great!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879961822849422387.post-80538807711954136192012-11-23T18:32:49.445-05:002012-11-23T18:32:49.445-05:00Hey Jean, I&#39;m a longtime reader, first time po...Hey Jean, I&#39;m a longtime reader, first time poster, and I wanted to chime in on the boots-for-thin-calves subject. <br /><br />I&#39;m built very much like you-- I too have tiny feet (sz 4.5-5) and tiny calves (12-12.5 inches) and I struggle to find boots that fit. I&#39;ve had good luck at Aldo getting boot that fit; this pair is currently on sale for 50% off. http://www.aldoshoes.com/us/sale/women/sale-boots/90802452-serowe/38 <br /><br />The website claims they have a 13.25 inch calf circumference, and I believe them. I plan on getting a pair, and wanted to let you know about them. Good luck, and happy thanksgiving! <br /><br />Yimo YLhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11686919479427907115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879961822849422387.post-37938034397788635482012-11-23T14:15:38.086-05:002012-11-23T14:15:38.086-05:00actually, i didn&#39;t confuse the two. i read bo...actually, i didn&#39;t confuse the two. i read both jean&#39;s and wendy&#39;s blogs and i think they both have their own personal style. they may be inspired by each other but are very different and that&#39;s why i enjoy reading both blogs.<br /><br />jean, great outfit and pictures. i love all the colors, so very crisp and bright. i don&#39;t have any suggestions for boots since i&#39;m not petite but your OTK boots fit you so well.linnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879961822849422387.post-87002293035722899042012-11-23T10:49:06.014-05:002012-11-23T10:49:06.014-05:00As a super petite fellow, I am so glad to run into...As a super petite fellow, I am so glad to run into your blog.
